Call that an excuse? Geeze, what will people come up with next? "I have to spend time with the family" or "I have to keep my money to keep food on the table for the family".
I tell you, some people. The excuses they come up with
From pers.experience, the 2 income thing is a pipedream....its more like her money never goes anywhere near Pinballs, and yours suddenly gets scrutinized very closely....you'll need a swiss Pinball account in the Caymans to hide your "play" money in...hurry up..you've only got a week!!!!!!
All kidding aside, congrats in advance...I hope you're going on a honeymoon somewhere where theres machines!!!! Have a good one!!
I did the 'step' two years ago (well, it'll be 2 years tomorrow) and never looked back...

Actually, it's a perfectly good excuse... Think about it... Now he'll have 2 incomes to spend on pins.
ha ha ha!!! Good luck! The only person thinking about the '2-income bonus' is the wife...more shoes, more clothes, more purses!!!
In all honesty, I have by 'hobby budget' which only comes from one income: mine...

I second that!!! During my honeymoon 'European Tour', I was quite happy to play a few Stern pins in Munich while my wife was resting at the hotel room after visiting one of those 'beergartens'...

Life is like Pinball!! You never know where you will bounce or where your going but sometimes you have that one amazing shot But on the other hand you have those darn gutter ball where you just get frustrated.
